Restaurants in Loughborough

Eastern Spice

Had an overnight stay In Loughborough and looked for somewhere nearby to eat. Came across Eastern spice by chance. Best Indian I’ve had for years. Food was gorgeous, came very quickly and piping hot. Very well cooked and full of flavour.Staff very pleasant and very much on the ball. Nothing too much trouble. Would love to go again as the menu was massive. Only problem I had was I was absolutely stuffed. I’ve had worse problems. Get yourselves there

Everest Lounge

what a delightful restaurant and what a find! You can see that Chef takes great pride in his/her curries as they are prepared with that extra flourish that makes it so tasty and so magical. Will definitely be coming here again! So far this is rated as number 1 on my list of Curry places to go to and this should not be taken lightly as I have been to many!Even my toy dog enjoyed the calm atmosphere, thank you.

Cafe-Ambience

Enjoyed a delicious breakfast with friends whilst visiting the area.Very accommodating to allergens.It was a breath of fresh air to eat somewhere new and be able to order a GF/DF/NF meal without feeling like I was being awkward.I would most certainly be happy to eat here again & also recommended to others.

The Phantom

I helped to host when Falcon Support Services held a 2 day music festival here. Staff were super friendly and helpful.Thanks to the whole team for what was a super busy weekend. Falcon Support Services raised over £2000 !!! Thank you everyone.

Peter Pizzeria

Amazing ambience and pizza's. Loved it. Too good taste and worth the price. Loved the Bruchettas and the Queen pizza was amazing. The truffle mayo was so tasty. Enzo was excellent. Will definitely come again.

The Swan Inn

visited the swan lnn with my wife and sonand daughter-inlaw and my assistance dog. the swan has a fine selection of real ales,and a warm, cosy and welcoming atmosphere, spotlessly clean throughout, also very dog friendly. the landlord is a great guy he, he has is own micro-brewery on site and crafts some fine real ales. Yes the swan is a truly 5 star proper village pub, a excellent asset for local people and visiters alike. give a try.

KoJa Restaurant

The most incredible meal here tonight. Service was outstanding, everyone was so friendly and welcoming, they couldn't do enough to help.The food was 10/10 out of this world good, I especially recommend the beef short rib which was marinated in the most delicious sauce. We also had bibimbap rice which would make a stunning meal on its own but paired with the meat was perfect.The deserts were the perfect end to an incredible experience!! Thank you and will hopefully see you again soon.Vegetarian options: Lots of different options available.Kid-friendliness: The experience would be great for kids but as long as the kids are aware of the dangers.

Plan Burrito

Food was great, very filling. It was my first time there and the attendant explained it to me. The meal deal wasn't pointed out or mentioned so I may have spent more than I needed to when I could've spent less for more. I would just say they should point out meal deals with customers so they can save a bit. The disco music videos on screen were a bit out of theme I expected more of a Hispanic influence but that may be just me. Overall good experience, just be sure to grab a meal deal to spend less.

Fernandez Grillhouse

When booking the table, the server very friendly and informative. He informed us of the location of the car park without us asking.On entering the restaraunt, it was very clean, we were served by Din and Rob and given a choice of tables.The menu was clearly explained to us, I can't fault the service at all.As we were waiting for our food, we were given regular updates.We ordered one Pepsi and one tap water, the tap water arrived in a bottle, with a glass containing ice. This was a really nice touch which is often overlooked.For the mains, we ordered the tenders and the beef burrito. We were very pleased with both choices. Again, Din and Rob regularly checked up on us to ensure we had everything we needed.Overall, I must say I can't fault this restaraunt at all. The service and food were both excellent.

La Favorita

Excellent food, wine, and service at La Favorita. Literally could have licked the plate clean. Scallops for Starter. Cooked to perfection and piping hot. I was going to have a steak for the main course, but I decided on the Monk Fish in Tagliatelle. Another amazing dish. Again, piping hot. Compliments to the chef ?‍?

Batter Days

Lovely local chippy. Hot and tasty food. They really seem to have gone from strength to strength since opening. Fish and chips are excellent. The price is reasonable. I had a large chips tonight and I thought she wasn't going to stop shovelling chips on!

Mount Gurkha (Loughborough)

Lovely Indian restaurant right on Ashby Road. We came here as a large group (12) and were very impressed with the speed of the service considering so much was ordered all at once.Being a large group we tasted a good cross section of the menu and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their curries.I personally went for the chicken bhuna and it was lovely tangy tomato with a warming chilli heat throughout.The value for money was incredible and they offer 10% student discount which we were very grateful for, especially given the current economy. The only minor complaint was that the naan bread was rather thin and crispy rather than the more soft, bread-like texture one would expect.Overall the food was highly flavourful and we would certainly return.

Spice Cube

We've been frequenting Spice Cube for some years, now. Always great food, whether eat in or takeaway. Always excellent, friendly service too. Our visit this weekend was no different. Many Thanks!

Caravelli

Encouraging to see a restaurant busy mid week, we called in on the off chance and were seriously impressed. The Leicestershire area has been missing a decent Italian since the old owners of Ferraris retired. Every dish that came out the kitchen was piping hot, superbly presented and what we tried all tasted fresh. Make sure you leave room for dessert the Tiramisu was stunning Drink prices are very reasonable along with a friendly team of staff. Highly recommend

TARBOUSH

Tarboush Express is finally open!I tried it today on their second day, and I am soooo pleased with the experience.I had an amazing bite of Chicken Shawarma that took me on a trip to the Levant, and I then had a Lamb Shawarma meal which was as amazing! There was also another person expressing how he felt the flavour was even better than the most famous meat Shawarma in the middle of Damascus Centre!I had to end my meal with a cheese Knefeh (Kunefe) which is a traditional dessert and this was also very tasty with a pot of Turkish tea that they offered me with a hint of Mint inside it, making it a mix between a tea from Turkey and a Morrocan tea! I loved it... and I strongly recommend everyone to have such experience. ? ?

The Moorings

Went for the first time for a wedding reception party. Staff are really friendly and the place is really nice. Even the locals were friendly and chatty.Didn't eat so can't rate that part. Drinks were swiftly made and good though.

Quorndon Fox Quorn Leicester

Visited here after rememberence service. Staff are really friendly and patient and the food was quick and delicious. I’ll definitely be coming back for another visit.

Griffin

Always loved the Griffin, used to drink Pedi in there in the late 80s and 90s.1st time back in a few years and whilst it had changed a fair bit it is still a decent pub though I had Guinness so I can't comment on the bitter at the mo.Anyway the great news is if you buy an annual discount card for a year (£5) then the beer (and food) in incredibly well priced. Already recouped the fiver after a burger and two pints. Chicken burger was good value for less than £7.On top of the competitive bar prices we were able to watch the rugby (football was on too) so I'd imagine they will have plenty of trade over the world cup.Staff were very good and friendly and stil has a great beer garden! Some on street parking close by (1 hour during core hours, otherwise pay to park car parks are easy walking distance).On the whole a top afternoon thanks and great value for money.

Murdochs Loughborough

Lovely breakfast. Eggs floretine and a full breakfast.Poached eggs were perfect and hollandaise sauce homemade.Really good value and absolutely delicious.Friendly serviceThroughly recommend

Curzon Arms

The restaurant side was cozy and we received really good service despite turning up really early into evening service.I had the Brisket burger. It was Juicy and plenty of flavour, and the bun didn't go soggy part way through.Really happy.

Harvester Wheatsheaf Loughborough

Just been for lunch we did book as its always busy at weekends nice sunny table very clean, I ordered battered halloumi my partner had the BBQ pulled pork burger absolutely beautiful meal the salad really fresh from the salad bar, nice lively atmosphere drinks lovely and cold, the only thing I would say just a tip for blue light card holders they don't accept them at weekends only Monday to Friday, not a problem didn't spoil the meal at all, just a tip to anyone going at weekends not to ask about blue light.... its not a negative at all.Vegetarian options: Vegetarians are well catered forParking: Make sure you put your number plate on the screen at front reception desk

The Windmill Inn

My partner and I had a beautiful meal last night just popped in on off chance we could get a meal so pleased we did the staff were so friendly and the food was amazing thank you to you all will be back jenny and Brian

S.O.A.K Cocktail Co

Tim at S.O.A.K. came to set up his own cocktail bar at our party and was brilliant. The bar looked awesome, the prep was really helpful, helping to choose the right cocktails and numbers, nice printed menus in a stand and hours of effort had gone into prepping delicious cocktails that all of our guests loved. Was a cool surprise for our guests and honestly made the party!

Ryan's Indian Cuisine

THE best Indian restaurant! My partner and I have dined here and ordered take away many times. Ryan’s is our favourite Indian; not only is the food delicious and high quality but the customer service is excellent! All staff work very hard and are always so friendly and accommodating. We cannot recommend this place enough and wouldn’t go anywhere else.

The Maxwells

Good food at a good price, but the price of the Perroni kinda offset the cheaper food. £4.50 for a bottle of 0% is a bit steep I think, but I appreciate that they have overheads.

The White Horse & Noodle Bar

Have been visiting the Noodle Bar now for many years, more often than not, on lunchtime beaks with work colleagues. The food is always good, and almost always, we are met with a huge welcome. The only minor niggle that I have, is that occasionally, the restaurant has been prone to draughtiness, though this is something which the owners seem to have sought to address more recently.

Anchor Inn Hathern

Lovely friendly staff great service. We only had panninis as it was lunch but they had lots of filling and were very tasty.Kid-friendliness: Big outside play area.

Amirul Restaurant and Takeaway

Visiting quorn so decided on a Friday night curry. Service was friendly and efficient. Food was good. Restaurant lacks a little atmosphere due to its restricted layout (long ‘thin’ building). Well priced with a very reasonable wine list.

The Kelso

Came here the second night after it had reopened. Just in time for Halloween! There's booths around to sit and chat or a dancefloor if you're thinking about going dancing.TL;DRVery accessibleCleanFriendly staffNice atmosphere10/10 would recommend.Staff were so friendly and assisted me when I had issues with the stairs (mobility aid) and also helped me easily access the disabled toilets (wasn't knocked over by people dancing on the way there!).There are little booths set up for people who would prefer to sit down, and they had a really nice ambiance.All of the bartender's were kind and really quickly got through their orders. The bouncers were also very kind when we were waiting to come in.Managed to run into all three of the managers throughout the night, and they were consistently on top of any issues that cropped up. Any issues that were brought to their attention were IMMEDIATELY addressed!Drinks were amazing, toilets were spotless (even in the early hours before closing), and the vibes were unmatched.Wheelchair accessibility: The place has plenty of room for a large wheelchair to navigate comfortably, disabled toilet which was well maintained!Not sure if it was a training module but the standard of care I got throughout the night was genuinely astonishing. I needed a little assistance getting up the stairs to access the rooftop area, and the staff made sure I was unhindered. I cannot sing their praises enough for this.

Heat Restaurant

We’ve ordered takeaway from Heat a few times recently and tonight I made a mistake and accidentally ordered the Chicken Tikka main instead of Chicken Tikka Masala…best mistake I’ve made for a while - one word; epic! Thanks Heat for one of the best meals for a while!

Tian Fu

Exceptional experience, such a beautiful place for big celebrations!We came for my cousin’s birthday party and everyone had a great time. The staff were also very helpful with dietary advice. Recommend Xingjjang Chicken, Salt and pepper spare ribs and Singapore Hofun - the best ones I’ve ever had in Chinese restaurants.Will be back for sure

Christos

One aspect that stood out to me was the exceptional quality of the ingredients used at Christos Restaurant. From the freshest seafood to the finest cuts of meat and the vibrant array of vegetables, every component of the dishes was sourced with care. The commitment to using high-quality, seasonal ingredients shone through in the exceptional taste and texture of each bite.

Subway

Always a friendly greeting, clean facilities and the food is always consistent and tasty. The owners of this Subway obviously care about the quality of service they provide

The Basin, Restaurant and Bar

Have been in twice recently and sampled both the vegan main courses (Ramen and Curry Ramen) they were both huge and very filling and I left satisfied. However it would be nice to have an non-noodle e.g. stir fry vegan dish available too.

300 Spartans

Hands down the best chippy in Loughborough, tasty food, massive and generous portion size, reasonable prices too unlike some profiteering places charging £15+ for fish and chips!!

Salim's

I travelled from Brighton to Loughborough (about 5 hours) for a meeting and by the time I arrived it was too late to eat out and so ordered a takeaway from Salim's. It was worth the journey just to eat their food, never mind the meeting ? Will definitely be going there the next time I am in Loughborough ♥️

The Bengal Tandoori & Balti Restaurant

We hadn’t visited the Bengal restaurant for some time but the food, service etc was excellent. The staff/owners as always were very friendly. Table clothes pristine. Highly recommended.

Domino's Pizza - Loughborough

Had to make a last minute lunchtime order for 60+ pizzas for a company christmas lunch (Covid Times!) and these guys delivered in 1hr 30 minutes. All pizzas arrived and not one error. A pizza company down the road turned down this order after being informed the day before..

Tandoori Empire Restaurant

Food and service were excellent ? but they had a really really really noisy group of ladies in and other people couldn't talk to each other without raising thier voice owners or workers should have spoken to

Baobab Cafe

Went here as advised is great for Coeliacs & I'm pleased to say it lived up to the hype.Went during peak lunch time on a Saturday so service wasn't the fastest, and when our table was cleaned they took the table number with them, so I watched my all day breakfast do a few loops round before they found me ?But it was well worth the wait.Recommend to any other Coeliacs or Gluten sensitive/avoiding who want a fuss-free meal ?Dietary restrictions: Huge variety of Gluten Free options.

The Deli at 58

What a fantastic find! They're undergoing some renovations to make the place larger, and once that's done it will be an absolute must visit because there'll be lots more space to sit. The food is excellent, the range of options is great and the flavours are well thought through. We tried the baked goods and sandwiches and both were really well made - the chilli jam is a real stand out for us! The team working there are lovely and welcoming. Very strong recommend from us!

A lovely local coffee shop. The staff are always really polite and friendly at both sites and we’ve never struggled getting a table at Storer Road. There is always a wide selection of cakes and we’ve never had one we haven’t liked! Coffee is also really nice and wide range of drinks.

The Three Nuns

Toby Carvery was full so we came into town for a roast, couldn7have picked a better spot. For ordering the last Chicken and Lamb, the meat was cooked perfectly, not over done, and considering my friend is a chef that's high praise.Didnt expect to get a half a chicken and lamb on the bone but found we could have just ordered off the bone.Only criticism is the veg can be seasoned more, mash with more butter, asked if we want gravy on the side, it's ok but I enjoy pouring my own gravy.Definitely a great part of our day. Look forward to another one.

Barnett’s Loughborough

My friend and I were looking for somewhere to have afternoon tea. We booked the day before.Everything was ready for us when we arrived. Fresh flowers on the table, it looked lovely.The food was lovely and lots of it. What we couldn't eat we brought home in a couple of boxes.A large pot of hot tea.The service was good.We look forward to going again.

Casa Cafe

Visited this cafe for breakfast twice while staying in Loughborough. Very friendly staff and great quality breakfasts both days. Small vegan breakfast and a double sausage bap in the pictures. Very competitive price, I would highly recommend.

Grab & Go, Shawarma & Falafel

AMAZINGGGGG FOOOOD.Absolutely lovely. The meat is perfectly seasoned and made perfectly. Also the rice is by far the biggest surprise, incredible taste and quality of the rice and the chicken shawarma box in general. Perfectly balanced meal with the fresh salad on the side that adds that refreshing taste to such a tasty and perfect meal

John Dory's Quorn

We’ve been going here for 4 years since it opened and it is by far the best fish and chips we have had anywhere, the customer service is outstanding, the staff are very friendly and the food is amazing. We travel 15 miles at least once or twice a month to eat here and they also have a park in front that you can eat on in the summer. We always leave completely satisfied as the portions are perfect and the flavours outstanding. Officially the best fish and chip shop in the Uk.

Tooley’s Café & Catering Company

Popped in when feeling hungry whilst shopping near by. Nice to have parking right outside We ordered two breakfast torpedo rolls. Both were absolutely full of our chosen filling, wrapped up well as we decided to take away. All ingredients were fresh and tasty. Great price too. Staff were friendly and we enjoyed a laugh whilst waiting. Lovely little place.

Supreme Fish Bar Ltd

I live in Blackpool and come to Loughborough to look after my mother who is 88 years old and a bit of a grump. Anyway, rather than have her cook dinner which it's guaranteed she'll burn, I suggest getting a chippy. I must say that this is the best fish and chip shop in the whole of the UK without a doubt. The food is fantastic with generous portions, the staff are so nice, the owner is amazing and most importantly, it's the cleanest establishment I have ever seen. (I used to own a fast food place of my own in Blackpool and am qualified to make this judgement). I wish to compliment everyone involved in the operation of this chippy and highly recommend you pay it a visit and see for yourself. You won't regret it.

The Cafe

My daughter and myself visit here on a weekly basis now our whole shopping trip begins with a full English at the cafe.Absolutely delicious ? tastiest breakfast for miles. Fab cup of tea goes with it. Great prices, lovely owners, pleasant staff you couldn't ask for more. Highly recommend. Perfect for wheelchair users i have no trouble accessing a place to eat.Nice clean washroom. 5 star review from us.

The Horse and Trumpet

Quaint & quirky pub, ideal for a cosy get together or a celebration. Thank you to Charlene, Joe and all the team at Steamin Billies for hosting our surprise birthday party. The day went so well,we carried on parting until midnight ? ? ? ?

Chocalatte
